1226 – The Rolling Stones – Shake your hips (1972)

 

Escrita pelo bluesman de Louisiana, Slim Harpo, foi gravada por ele inicialmente em 1966. A nossa versão, no entanto, é a dos Rolling Stones, lançada em 12 de maio de 1972 no disco Exile on Main St. Foi idéia de Mick Jagger fazer essa regravação.

A letra:

That's goin' around
Everybody's doin' it
From the grownups down
Don't move your head
Don't move your hands
Don't move your lips
Just shake your hips
Do the hip shake, babe
Do the hip shake, babe
Shake your hip, babe
Shake your hip, babe

What you don't know

Don't be afraid
Just listen to me
And do what I say
Don't move your head
Don't move your hands
Don't move your lips
Just shake your hips
Do the hip shake, babe
Do the hip shake, babe
Shake your hip, babe
Shake your hip, babe

Well ain't that easy
Well, I met a little girl

In a country town
She said, "What do you know
There's Slim Harpo!"
Didn't move her head
Didn't move her hands
Didn't move her lips
Just shook her hips
Do the hip shake, babe
Do the hip shake, babe
Shake your hip, babe
Shake your hip, babe
Well ain't that easy
